How to Select Area Between Labels
I have been using the 1.3.x Beta version for a while now, but one thing I cannot figure out how to do is select the area between two labels in an audio track. The length of the audio between the labels I want to select is usually around 30 minutes long which takes forever to start at the beginning of a label and drag across. I have tried double clicking on the label track between the two labels, but it just selects everything from the very beginning of the track to the end of the second label and not just the area between the two labels. Is there an easier way to do this?

Re: How to Select Area Between Labels
Click and drag until the selected area is slightly more than you want -- before the first and after the second. Magnify Control-E.
Click near the first label and drag toward the second. The two labels should become magnetic and pull your cursor into place.
